Well that would be... interesting. Probably require one hell of a riser bracket to be able to see over the door sill...

Anything is possible. The question is, why would you want to?

Seriously? I have no idea how much Macan seats weigh, but even if you could save 100lbs, I don't see how that will put a ding on weight/fuel economy on a 4,400lb car. And do you really want the pain of getting in and out of buckets in such a high vehicle? They're bad enough on sports cars. I can't fathom doing that at height.

Macan weighs two tons . Not even eating salad for month can defeat that.

I have a couple buddies who are WRL racers and have discussed building a Macan Turbo to race in WRL. Which would be amazing. But couldn't use an LWB there would have to be a proper halo seat.

Relax, obviously it's a joke
